Part 9 Ch. 1 - Final Day Off

Today was the teams last day off until they needed to re-group at the location in which they will be defending.

Liu woke up with the sun in his eyes, Mercy has large windows behind her bed. Rubbing his eyes yawning, he looked at Mercy next to him. Since Liu moved, Mercy let go of him, making her wake up.

"Good morning." Liu said.

"Mm..." Mercy groaned.

She did not want to get up.

"Come on Angela, time to get up." Liu said.

Mercy was not listening, instead, she crawled up on top of Liu and closed her eyes again.

"Lazy day..." Mercy whispered.

Liu wasn't buying it.

"Jerry and Hana invited us over, its out last day so I figured we could spend some time with them.

Mercy signed. "What time?"

"Maybe around and hour." Liu said.

"Alright then...: Mercy said, opening her eyes.

Mercy yawned, and then sat up on Liu. He now noticed that she never put anything on after the shower from last night.

"First things first," Liu blushed. "You've got to get some clothing on."

She rubbed her eyes once more, looking down at Liu.

"Okay okay, I just wanna relax in the bath for like 20 minutes..." Mercy said.

She got off Liu, making her way to the bathroom out in the hall. Liu followed behind, the bathroom was large and full of smooth, shiny tile. Mercy started up the water.

"Care to join me?" Mercy asked.

Liu came in with some clothing of his.

"I'll consider it..." Liu said.

"Still nervous about all this?" Mercy asked. "Even after last night?"

"I-It's just how I am..." Liu said.

Mercy shook her head, smiling.

"At least dip your feet in." Mercy said.

"Well if I were to do that, I might as well just get in..." Liu said.

Liu pulled up his shirt, his back facing Mercy. She watched, waiting patiently, she then noticed 2 mild scratch marks above Liu's back scar from his first battle.

"Oh my, where did those come from?" Mercy asked.

Liu turned is head, smiling lightly with a small blush on his face.

"Those were from you..." Liu said.

Mercy covered her mouth, looking left to right as if somebody heard.

"Was I really that rough?" Mercy asked.

Liu shook his head. "Not at all, I never felt them. " Liu said. "I hope I wasn't too rough with you either..."

Mercy smiled. "You were just perfect, Liu..." She admired.

The mist of the hot water filled up the bathroom now, just as Liu stepped in, he sank down to his chest in the water, closing his eyes.

"This is nice and warm..." Liu said.

Mercy slid over, leaning on Liu.

"Yeah, its nice and relaxing." Mercy replied.

They just sat there for a while.

"I think its time we wash our hair, and get going." Mercy said.

"Yeah, you're right." Liu replied.

Before they left, Liu put on some black pants, and a generic white and blue baseball T-shirt, but Liu happened to like those types. Mercy put on a black skirt and a navy blue turtle neck, which made her really warm. With that, they headed out the door.

When they got to Hana's house, Liu knocked 4 times, and waited. The door opened, Jerry was there to greet the two.

"Hey guys, glad you could come and see us." Jerry said.

The two walked in.

"I basically had to drag her out of bed this morning." Liu said, hugging Jerry as they entered.

"Oh, there you guys are!" A high pitched voice said.

It was D'va. holding some board games. She set them down for a moment to go and see Mercy and Liu.

"Oh, Hana!" How are you, dear?" Mercy asked.

"I'm doing great!" D'va said, hugging Mercy.

She turned to see Liu.

"And I can't forget about you!" D'va said.

She game Liu a hug and a kiss on the cheek as a warm gesture.

"Come into the living room, we've got snacks, and we can play those board games." D'va said.

They entered the large living room, there was a high T.V., all the latest game consoles, and some posters.

"I smell Doritos" Liu said.

"Oh yeah, we... have... A lot of those..." Jerry laughed.

They moved the coffee table so they could all sit on the floor.

"So, what have you two been up to?" Mercy asked, sitting next to Liu.

"I head to teach Jerry how to correctly play this one game that he can't beat..." D'va said.

"My thumbs we're hurting that day!" Jerry yelled.

"Sure, noob." D'va teased, sticking out her tongue.

Liu chuckled. "He can still beat me any time in Super Smash Bros." He said.

D'va shouted. "I know! I can't beat him at all, not once!"

They all laughed.

"Also, Angela." D'va said. "I scheduled us 2 hours at a spa in the mall down town, the boy's can just socialize for a bit when we're gone. Jerry agreed to it at least."

"Yeah, that's alright." Liu said. "But two baths in once day?" Liu said.

D'va looked at Liu, then at Mercy.

"Oh, you took a bath this morning?" Jerry asked.

"Yeah, we did." Mercy replied.

"Wait, wait, wait, WE?!" D'va said. "Who were you with?" She asked.

Liu raised his hand slightly, blushing.

D'va cover her mouth and squealed.

"Oh my gosh, what else did you guys do?" D'va asked.

The two didn't say anything, they just touched shoulders, both looking embarrassed.

"I knew it was right to ship these two!" D'va screamed excitedly.

"Okay Hana, calm down." Jerry said.

It took a while, but she soon did.

"Okay, okay Angela, lets go. You can tell me more on the way." D'va said.
